Chapter 536: Causing Trouble
Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio
The middle-aged man was not an impulsive young lad. He knew that as this youth had dared to come, then he must have some background. Furthermore, the youth had arrived on a Flaming Dragon Colt. When faced with such a youth, the man didn’t dare to make decisions.
However, obviously, the youth had come with ill intentions. Among other things, the Flaming Dragon Colt was carrying four Tong Luo Sect disciples, but they were all crippled. Even if the youth was coming to the Tong Luo Sect to claim a debt, it was unnecessary for him to be so ruthless.
Mo Wen crossed his arms, waiting silently for the Tong Luo Sect Deputy Sect Leader to appear.
As for Skinny Monkey and the other three, they were feeling remorseful. Not to mention they had become useless cripples now, once the deputy sect leader found out they had committed crimes and caused trouble for the sect, they would most likely be killed.
“Who dares to come to find fault with my Tong Luo Sect?” A dull voice sounded. At first, it sounded from deep within the camp base but in an instant, the person who the voice belonged to had appeared in front of them. A silhouette stirred up a strong gale and before the wind ceased, a figure had appeared at the entrance of the camp base.
The person who appeared was a middle-aged brawny man. He was well-built and his gaze was bright and piercing. The gus.h.i.+ng vigor of Qi and blood emanated constantly from his body. It was as though he was a human-sized monstrous beast. The energy that he emanated was unparalleled.
“So you are the Tong Luo Sect Deputy Sect Leader?” Mo Wen asked plainly.
“Who are you?” Liu Tong frowned. He was the dignified deputy sect leader of the Tong Luo Sect. He was someone of significance yet this youth had actually dared to speak to him like that. Normally, he would have slapped him. However, this youth came on a Flaming Dragon Colt. His temperament was calm and his demeanor was exceptional. So, Liu Tong held it in.
“Ask your sect leader to come out.” Mo Wen lowered his gaze, not even giving Liu Tong a glance.
A glint of light flashed in Liu Tong’s eyes. He stared at the youth, surprised. He had seen many arrogant youngsters, but this was his first time meeting such an impetuous youth. Judging from the youth’s reaction, the youth seemed to look down at him. The youth seemed to think that only the Tong Luo Sect sect leader was qualified to speak to him. Most likely even the Four Geniuses in the Green Ancient Mystery Dimension would not dare to be so arrogant, let alone an anonymous brat.
“The sect leader is not around. If you have anything, you can refer it to me.” Considering that this youth’s background might not be simple, Liu Tong still held his anger in. To be able to become the Tong Luo Sect deputy sect leader, other than cultivation, he also had exceptional wisdom.
The Tong Luo Sect was not a strong sect in the Green Ancient Mystery Dimension. Naturally, they wouldn’t dare be too reckless in their methods. This youth had popped up from nowhere. Liu Tong couldn’t be sure whether this was a trap targeting the Tong Luo Sect.
Of course, he too had noticed that the Flaming Dragon Colt was carrying four Tong Luo Sect disciples; however, they were just normal disciples in the sect. Furthermore, they had not received any mission from the sect, so what they did only reflected their personalities. If the youth was visiting the Tong Luo Sect because of what they did, it was rather exaggerated. After all, they were only normal Tong Luo Sect disciples, unworthy to be mentioned. The youth was making a big fuss over a minor issue.
“Since you say so, it means you can make decisions?” Mo Wen lifted his eyebrows, saying calmly, “Okay then. I’ll tell you. These men from your Tong Luo Sect wanted to s.n.a.t.c.h my valuables and harm me. They wanted to s.n.a.t.c.h my Flaming Dragon Colt. What do you say? How should we solve this?”
“So these few good-for-nothing disciples offended you. Okay, I’ll kill them as compensation for you.” Liu Tong glanced expressionlessly at the four normal Tong Luo Sect disciples, confirming in his heart that this youth was here to cause trouble. Otherwise, since he was able to capture these few good-for-nothing fellows, it would have been easy for him to kill them himself.
Even though the Tong Luo Sect was at fault in this matter, at most they could only be said to be lacking in disciplining the disciples. It was reasonable for one to come and demand justice. However, judging from this youth’s expression, he seemed to want more than justice.
Liu Tong didn’t bat an eyelid and waved his hand straight away. A gale raged through and the wind was transformed into a wind blade, slicing the heads off the four Tong Luo Sect disciples in an instant. The gale rolled past and four corpses could be seen lying on the ground in a straight line.
Mo Wen stared at Liu Tong indifferently. He made no effort to stop him.
“So? Now, this should have restored justice for you, right?” Liu Tong stared at Mo Wen coldly, narrowing his eyes.
“The disciples made the mistake, but the sect and their master are at fault too. This is not enough.” There was not the slightest hint of emotion in Mo Wen’s voice.
“Not enough? They merely s.n.a.t.c.hed your valuables. Now four people are dead. Is this still not enough? What do you want exactly? Do you think my Tong Luo Sect can be easily bullied?” Liu Tong let out a cold laugh, not feeling surprised. Since this youth had come to the sect, naturally he wouldn’t back off so easily.
He was mentally prepared, but he did not know what this youth who came was hiding behind his back or whether there was another faction secretly provoking their Tong Luo Sect. He knew he no simple youth. Otherwise, Liu Tong would have already killed him with a slap. Many people were not afraid of dying, but there should be no one who would seek death so eagerly.
“Since your Tong Luo Sect wants to s.n.a.t.c.h my Flaming Dragon Colt, then you should compensate me with a Flaming Dragon Colt.” The corner of Mo Wen’s mouth curled into a smile. He looked harmless and easy to talk to.
He naturally did not believe that the Tong Luo Sect could compensate him with a Flaming Dragon Colt, so he was indeed coming over to cause trouble.
“Compensate you with a Flaming Dragon Colt!” Liu Tong was so enraged that he laughed. Not to mention that the condition was somewhat wishful thinking, the Tong Luo Sect could not possibly compensate a Flaming Dragon Colt.
“Brat, if you have something to say, say it. Why are you here?” Liu Tong retracted his smile, his expression turning cold.
Although the Tong Luo Sect did not want to stir up trouble, they were not afraid of it. Although they were not some super large sect, they would not let anyone walk over them.
“I came over for nothing other than to cause trouble. For me to meet you, just admit that it’s your bad luck!” Mo Wen said in a tone that was neither salty nor sweet. But his words were enough to make people die of anger.
Going to find the Tong Luo Sect was a last minute idea. It was hard to place his Flaming Dragon Colt anywhere and he was afraid that others would plan on trying to steal it too. Since it was so, then he would make others not dare to have the idea.
So, if he wanted to cause trouble, he would cause a trivial matter to become serious and a serious matter to escalate further. After all, in the Green Ancient Mystery Dimension, aside from that mysterious Martial Arts Grandmaster, he was not afraid of anyone.
Once he had caused a major incident and others knew that he was not to be trifled with, naturally no one would dare to have any ideas about the Flaming Dragon Colt.
“You weasel, you sure have guts. With just you?” Liu Tong gave Mo Wen a look of disdain. He knew inside that this youth had ill intentions, but he did not believe that he would dare do anything alone. He certainly had someone giving him orders in the background.
“Can’t I?” Mo Wen smiled, wearing a heartless look.
“Since the people behind you are not revealing themselves, then I will detain you first. I want to see whether or not you can.” Liu Tong was so enraged that he laughed. What sort of courage booster had this youth taken for him to face a Golden Elixir realm ancient martial art pract.i.tioner and actually dare to ridicule him? With the influences backing him, could it be that he was looking down on everyone?
Did he think that he was one of the Green Ancient Mystery Dimension’s Four Geniuses? This callow youth had actually imagined himself to be a big shot. Liu Tong had met the Four Geniuses, and this youth was not one of them. Also, with this youth’s age, it was seemingly impossible.
Liu Tong coldly snorted and took a step forward. A frightening aura swept out. It was similar to pressure, but this blood boiling power was even more suppressive. The power of the Tong Luo Sect’s deputy sect leader’s flesh was certainly astonis.h.i.+ng.
Such a frightening pressure would likely have scared a normal ancient martial art pract.i.tioner and turned them pale. Even Embryonic Breathing realm ancient martial art pract.i.tioners would have difficulty remaining calm.
But Mo Wen looked as though he had felt nothing. He stood there, seemingly not looking at anyone, with his hands behind his back. He even had a smile hanging on the corners of his mouth, as though he was not facing a deputy sect leader, but a joke.
Liu Tong’s expression turned sullen. He never imagined that this youth could actually have such frightening resistance to pressure and that his mental fort.i.tude was so strong. He originally thought that he could scare Mo Wen and make him collapse under the extreme pressure. But right now, that did not seem too possible. Could it be that to deal with the youth, he had to attack personally?
“Fu Bin, tie up this brat for me,” Liu Tong said with an ice-cold expression. He did not intend to attack the youth himself. A brat was not qualified for him to do so. He only wanted to know who was behind this brat.
Liu Tong did not kill Mo Wen, not because he did not want to, but because he did not dare to. Before figuring out the exact situation they were in, he didn’t want to act rashly and cause a major incident. Others were clearly looking for trouble and had sent the youth over. If he killed this youth, he might end up falling into the other party’s trap.
“As you wish, Deputy Sect Leader.” An elder that appeared to be in his fifties stepped out from behind Liu Tong. From his aura, it could be seen that he was an expert that was at least above the later stage Embryonic Breathing realm. He walked straight at Mo Wen, not even looking at him. He directly attacked, a shriveled claw heading straight at Mo Wen’s throat. Rich Inner Qi gathered, sealing off the surrounding s.p.a.ce. If at this moment, Mo Wen was just a Qi Nucleation realm ancient martial art pract.i.tioner, he would most likely be unable to escape.
Of course, there were no ifs. With Mo Wen’s current cultivation, he did not need to be concerned with any Embryonic Breathing realm ancient martial art pract.i.tioner at all.
A brilliant golden light flashed. Mo Wen instantly looked like a G.o.d of Flame clad in a suit of golden flame combat gear. A searing and frightening power flooded the heavens and the earth.
The elder called Fu Bin had barely gotten close to Mo Wen when he felt a frightening power surging over. His body felt as though suddenly a mountain had appeared on it, nearly causing him to stagger under the pressure.
Next, a golden light flashed past in front of him. The blinding light caused him to be unable to keep his eyes open. He could barely see a silhouette clad in golden flames appear in front of him. Then, a fist seemed to stretch to infinity before his eyes. At this moment, he could clearly see it and feel it, but he couldn’t react at all.
Bang! The elder flew backward. A fist-sized hole appeared in his abdomen. Golden flames spread wildly to the surroundings with the hole as its epicenter. His body had not even landed on the ground before the golden flames had burnt it to ash.
A later stage Embryonic Breathing realm ancient martial art pract.i.tioner had completely disappeared from the world in the blink of an eye.
The surrounding members of the Tong Luo Sect were all stunned in disbelief. They could not believe the scene before their eyes. How was this possible?
Even Liu Tong as the deputy sect leader of the Tong Luo Sect was shocked right now, never mind the others. He looked at Mo Wen, unable to say anything for a long while. Right now, the youth’s aura could be compared to his. It was even more overbearing.
